Fellini, SATYRICON (1969)

Is a 1969 Italian film by Federico Fellini. It is loosely based on the Petronius novel Satyricon,a series of bawdy and satirical episodes written during the reign of the emperor Nero and set in imperial Rome. SYNOPSIS: In SATYRICON, Italian New Wave director Federico Fellini depicts the hedonistic, amoral, pre-Christian world of ancient Rome. Using the unfinished classical writings of Petronius as his guide, Fellini invents a dreamlike culture full of strange, distant characters and odd, grotesque events.
